Iggy Azalea Takes A Swipe At Britney Following Their Duet Flop

Two powerful pop forces united last month when Iggy Azalea and Britney Spears dropped their sizzling duet Pretty Girls. However, even the girls' A-list status and fierce video couldn't guarantee chart success for the single. The pair released Pretty Girls in May.  Although it has racked up over 78 million views on YouTube, it barely cracked the Top 30 and has fallen steadily since. Azalea has now taken to Twitter-sphere to weigh in on why the single may have flopped, blaming lack of promotion from Britney's team.

@rhuancesarr its difficult to send a song up the charts without additional promo and tv performances etc. unfortunately im just featured...

@rhuancesarr i would have enjoyed performing it alot, i think it got off to a powerful start. but you need content to compete in 2015. — IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) June 28, 2015

The comments caused fans to speculate that Iggy was throwing shade at Britney and blaming her for the single's bomb, causing Iggy to respond and defend her comments as purely "factual". However, she did add: "My comment is factual, it applies to any song. I dont have to suck the womans a**hole 24/7 to be her friend, do I? bye girls. (sic)." Ouch. The pair performed together at the Billboards recently.  Aside from the lack of chart success, Iggy has had a tough month. She cancelled her tour due to "a creative change of heart" and also revealed that she scrapped six months of work on her new album, a follow up to her 2014 offering The New Classic.
